This is the second post for the week and it is only Thursday. Looks like someone has been working or trying to work at least.
It is the eleventh day of Eid but I am still tired physically and mentally, thus the occasional writer’s block. With more guests coming over this weekend and the cousin’s wedding next weekend (baking the wedding cakes!), I…
If there is one thing I love about Singapore, it has to be the multi-cultural environment that we live in. I love the vast festivals that we get to celebrate and the cultures/practices that we get to observe. Many a times, despite not being in the same ethnic group, we get to celebrate different festivals as friends would usually invite…
I have been blogging more on beverages if you noticed. I mean look at this and this or this avocado smoothie? It is a combination of two things. Cold drinks are LOVELY on a hot hot day. Secondly, during Ramadan, we do crave for all these sweet drinks somehow!
Do you guys know this fruit? OR does it look like an…
It is already the ninth day of fast
And this is going ultrafast.
If a shooting star were to fly past,
I would have wished for Ramadan to last.
With my "original composition" above, it sure feels like the mojo is back!
Ramadan is moving at 100000000km/h. Not liking the pace really but loving this Easy Hummus Recipe though. In fact totally digging it. Hummus…
I can't believe that it is already 5th day of Ramadan. Like seriously, it felt as if it was only yesterday that I was so eagerly waiting to usher in Ramadan. Anyways Ramadan has been moving along very nicely, serene and enjoyable at the same time.
I have a confession to make. I have been idling around for the beginning half…
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and Muslims worldwide would engage in fasting from dawn to sunset. I often get non Muslims asking me as to what we can actually eat or drink during the fast. I do know that there are certain religions that allow light food to be taken during a fast. Personally I am…
Ten more days to Ramadan! I am sooo excited! The month I have been waiting for, the most beautiful thirty days in the year according to me. :) Ramadan is always family time for me. I believe it is the same for a lot of other Muslim families too. Somehow during Ramadan, everyone seems to be around the house and…
I was busy with my cousin's good-friend wedding cake over the weekend.
The bride wanted a simple and sweet cake. I have done quite a number of wedding cakes over the past few years, but I still get the jitters every single time. It is always in my head that this cake is for someone's big day, so nothing should go…
Growing up, dessert wasn't something we ate very often. In fact, we rarely ate out back then. When my late dad was still around, eating out every weekend was a norm though. Mom started working 2 years after dad passed away. Expenses were pretty tight and cooking was definitely a better option than eating out. Lucky us, my mom is…
Every day, I wake up at the break of sunshine and from under my super cozy leopard print duvet, I gazed out of the window thinking what a beautiful day it is gonna be. I think of the flowers that are blooming away in my garden. I think of the yummy sandwiches and tea that must be waiting for me,…
